[NTG-context] How to know the text was to big
I want to create a pdf-document which has severall frames in which user supplied data has to be put. I have two questions about this: - How can I use parameters to fill the boxes? - When one or more of the supplied texts does not fit its frame the pdf document is 'corrupt'. How can I see that at least one of the texts did not fit its frame? -- Cecil Westerhof ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

I found a bug (?) with \setupfloat[figure][indentnext=yes]
If I do

Some Text
then it's ok, but if
Some Text
\placefigure[inner]{}{...}

It looks ugly, please, fix this or tell me what i'm doing wrong.

Re: [NTG-context] Math setup with Times (Termes)
Thank you everybody very much, esp. Mojca! You almost saved my life! )
In spite of previously said, I don't like mixing Termes with Times New
Roman, because e.g. "M" in math looks rather like bold "M" in the text.
But I made a hack which works for me:
{ name = "timesi.ttf", vector = "tex-mi-txpx2", skewchar=0x7F },
I just replaced texgyretermes-italic.otf with timesi.ttf.
Unfortunatelly, I cannot modify the first line too, because some greek
letters are missed then, but I believe one day I could manage this )
mathematics.make_font ( "tx-math", {
{ name = "texgyretermes-regular.otf", features = "virtualmath",
main = true },
{ name = "rtxr.tfm", vector = "tex-mr" } ,
{ name = "rtxmi.tfm", vector = "tex-mi-txpx1", skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = "timesi.ttf", vector = "tex-mi-txpx2", skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = "txsy.tfm", vector = "tex-sy", skewchar=0x30, parameters =
true } ,
{ name = "txex.tfm", vector = "tex-ex", extension = true } ,
{ name = "txsya.tfm", vector = "tex-ma" },
{ name = "txsyb.tfm", vector = "tex-mb" },

Perfect for the moment! Thanks again!

Hi,
If you place the setups outside the bTABLE - eTABLE then the setup is
global. You can put the setups after the bTABLE and then they are
local to the table.

Work like a charm. There is only one minor problem: where frame's

In this case I wanted everything to be centered, but is it possible to

I have made a start. I have the following tex-file:
\usemodule[defaults]
\setupoutput[pdf]
\setuplayout[header=0in,
footer=0in]
\starttext
\defineframed
[action][width=5cm, height=3cm]
\defineframed
[base][width=3cm, height=14.5cm]
\startcombination[1*2]
{\action
{1}}
{}
\stopcombination
\startcombination[2*2]
{\action
{2}}
{}
{\action
{3}}
{}
\stopcombination
\startcombination[3*2]
{\action
{4}}
{}
{\action
{5}}
{}
{\action
{6}}
{}
\stopcombination
\base
{7}
\stoptext
This is a start, but there are two problems with it. Everything is
placed on the left side and there is room between the boxes. How can I
solve this?
Also, with the startcombination, I always need to have the second
value to be at least two. Is this not a bug?

You can take a look at
\starttext
\loadmapfile[original-youngryu-tx.map]
\font\testlm=lmmi10.tfm
\font\testone=rtxmi.tfm \testone
\font\testtwo=rtxptmri.tfm \testtwo

\hbox to 2.6ex{\color[blue]{\testtwo\char\recurselevel}}%
\hbox to 2.6ex{\color[black]{\testlm\char\recurselevel}}
}
\stoptext
Then two copies of tex-mi in math-vfu are needed (some other name has
to be assigned). One where only red characters are used and the other
one where all the others are left (just comment out the rest that's
not needed). You probably need to map g, v, w, y, ... separately to
the math italic unicode range (that's not done in current tex-mi).
You may visually check if that's consistent with LM font in the third row.
Mojca
(Thinking one step further ... one could take all the greek letters
from TeX Gyre as well, though I'm not 100% sure ... it could be that
there is some metric information present in these tfm files that's
missing in otf fonts.)

Oh, I see it now. At this point:
fonts.vf.math.set_letters(fonts.enc.math, "tex-mi", 0x1D434, 0x1D44E)
the letters from tex-mi are copied to math italic, but in case of
txfonts and the chosen subset of glyphs this region is empty, so
ConTeXt most probably just falls back to "normal a" from the main
regular font, but those characters should come from the italic font
instead (I don't know if additional metrics are needed or not).
I tried to do the following for example:
fonts.enc.math["tex-mi2"] = {
}
-- now that all other vectors are defined ...
fonts.vf.math.set_letters(fonts.enc.math, "tex-mi", 0x1D434, 0x1D44E)
fonts.vf.math.set_letters(fonts.enc.math, "tex-mi2", 0x1D434, 0x1D44E)
mathematics.make_font ( "tx-math", {
{ name = "texgyretermes-regular.otf", features = "virtualmath",
main = true },
{ name = "rtxr.tfm", vector = "tex-mr" } ,
{ name = "rtxmi.tfm", vector = "tex-mi", skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = "texgyretermes-italic.otf", vector = "tex-mi2", skewchar=0x7F },
{ name = "txsy.tfm", vector = "tex-sy", skewchar=0x30, parameters = true } ,
{ name = "txex.tfm", vector = "tex-ex", extension = true } ,
{ name = "txsya.tfm", vector = "tex-ma" },
{ name = "txsyb.tfm", vector = "tex-mb" },
} )
I now get italic math (but roman h for example). So this needs to be
fixed a bit, but it's the right direction at least. (Though it might
be better to use generic names like "regular" or "italic" for name= in
case that users try to use some other times-like base font for
example.)

But the weird thing is that tex-mi doesn't seem to come from mi font, but from italic part of the main font (at least all the entries in math-vfu in tex-mi mapping are commented out and there is fonts.vf.math.set_letters(fonts.enc.math, "tex-mi", 0x1D434, 0x1D44E)). So I'm really a bit puzzled. Is some "italic mapping" missing in termes setup?

What You Don't Want To Know: a virtual font is just a regular font but has references to other fonts instead, like char 1 -> font x, char 10 (or dvi commands instead) and then it can has kerning etc within its own set tex itself only sees characters as things with dimensions and a few properties and when typesetting the paragraph uses info from the font with respect to kerning and ligature building now, traditional tex has only tfm files and when virtual fonts were introduced the engine was not adapted at all; so, a virtual font still has a tfm file (with characters etc) however, when the font is being used in the backend, an extra lookup takes place and when a vf file is found, information from that file is used for embedding (in pdftex); of course dvi postprocessors also look at that file so we have: tfm -> tfm used by frontend and backend tfm + vf -> tfm used by frontend, vf used by backend on top of that a map file will point from fontname to real name (pfb) and this is why in a map file you don't see the virtual font names at all, as it's the names inside the vf that matter so say that we have: a.tfm + a.vf but internally a.vf -> font b, c, d (or further chained) then b, c, d need to be resolved to real names as there is no checking going on and as the tfm file has no info about itself being virtual you can imagine that interesting side effects can take place when an old (unknown of) vf lays around ... it will kick in at backend time (this is why the texfont script does a clean up) in luatex we have integrated these mechanisms, so internally a font can have virtual properties (a few more than original tex) however, by default luatex acts like tex, so users won't notice; as luatex has the backend integrated, at some point it will need the vf and mkiv will happily fulfill that request but ... and this is the catch ... in mkiv we use (1) opentype, (2) type 1 and (3) traditional tex fonts (1) is not related to virtual fonts but we can (and do) extend fonts internally using virtual technology (2) in pdftex tfm/vf files are used but mkiv does not look at those files but uses afm files directly (right from the start) (3) the only place in mkiv where tex metric files are still used is in math as we need the additional (math specific) info as it makes no sense to keep supporting the old math fonts while open type variant sare under way, i decided to stick to unicode math and as a result we need to use virtual font technology to make that unicode variant for the lm fonts, this is mostly done and as they have no virtual (vf based) fonts it's transparent for tx/px however, as they use virtual fonts, it gets hairy what file to load; technically there is no obstacle but i've chosen to stay away from the tfm/vf mess and use just the natural tfm variants (i.e. the ones that match the pfb) and therefore we might need a few extra vectors (and maybe font files) in math-vfu that map to the right slots; using the vf's as well would complicate matters and it's not worth the trouble so, what we need to do is to figure out teh few missing files/vectors, add them, and then let users fill in the gaps in vectors are you still there?

Hi,
Is it possible to define a tex macro on the context command line (MkII)?
For example:
texexec manual.tex --define Title "X99 Operators Manual"
so that
\Title
would expand to the appropriate text?
You can do that with pdftex command,
pdftex -progname=context -fmt=cont-en -translate-file=natural.tcx
--output-format=pdf --8bit --jobname=filename
"\\def\\Title{whatever} \\input filename"
but you loose all the goodies of texexec (multiple runs, running bibtex,
sorting index, etc.)
Alternatively, it is possible to read from console during a tex run
\starttext
\immediate\write16{What is the title?}
\read16 to \Title
Title is \Title
\stoptext
\starttext
test: \env{whatever}
\stoptext
context --arguments="whatever=Test" ...

Hello,
I don't know, if there is something similar in MKII, but with MKIV, the
following works very nicely:
file.tex:
\starttext
Value of Title: “\getvariable{environment}{Title}”
\stoptext
Command line:
context "--arguments=Title=X99 Operators Manual" file
Cheers, Peter

If you want to know the numbers of the different ornaments: open the
file hoeflertextornaments.tma, which will be in your luatex-cache,
under fonts/otf. There's a section "unicodes" where you'll find all
the names and the corrresponding values. (There's probably a more
elegant way of achieving this, but that's what I used.)
If you want more than just a few glyphs, you can also define a
symbolset from Hoefler Ornaments, see
